Depending on the exact SKU, the system may include aluminum tubing, reinforced silicone couplers, sealed adapters, clamps and auxiliary ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat This Means on the Car\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA larger or smoother charge pipe does not create boost by itself. Its job is to reduce unnecessary restriction and provide durable plumbing for compressed air. That becomes increasingly relevant as the turbo, calibration and intercooler ask the charge system to move more air.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Part Numbers\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2017–2022 BMW 540i (G30\/G31\/G38) B58 3.0T\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eaFe POWER part number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 46-20548-B\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFitment can differ by engine, drivetrain, trim, factory equipment, emissions configuration and production date. Match the part number above to the vehicle before installation; where aFe publishes SKU-specific installation or emissions requirements, those requirements take precedence.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eLegacy Racing Enthusiast Perspective\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe consider charge pipes supporting hardware. They make the most sense on progressively modified turbo cars, especially when the intake and intercooler system are already being addressed or when the factory plumbing is a known weak point. On the 2017–2022 BMW 540i (G30\/G31\/G38) B58 3.0T, we would make the purchase decision around the limitation this component addresses and how it fits with the car's current and planned modifications.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Legacy Racing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50260917289210,"sku":"AFE46-20548-B","price":354.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0325\/6352\/7739\/files\/6848abac92e7aed106a80cee78688309.jpg?v=1745365194","url":"https:\/\/lgcracing.com\/products\/afe-17-22-bmw-540i-g30-g31-g38-b58-l6-3-0l-t-bladerunner-3-aluminum-hot-charge-pipe-black","provider":"Legacy Racing","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
